If only the solution to America's political problems were as simply solved as the protagonist of this lively mystery suggests: Just limit Congressional terms to one per politician, this eliminating not only the dialing for dollars every elected official spends more time doing than legislating ,but also limiting the corruption that eventually entraps even the most public spirited public servant.
It's not that easy, of course, but once family members of the longest -serving incumbents start dying, the plot thickens. By the time the police make the connection between the killings and the murderer's motive, the disappointed reader realizes that term limits, however achieved, may not be the most efficient or effective way to drain the Washington DC swamp.

Non-stop action right from the start! The fact that the events in the story have not already happened is probably the strangest thought going through my mind as I read the book.An Everyman vigilante takes matters in his own hands when he is overwhelmed by current events.

This book is up to date with the current times we are living in. A complete thriller that leaves you wondering how this story isn't taken right from the front pages of our newspapers. It very much could be a story that has and is currently happening in the United States right now.

The book I wish that I had written! I've had an idea like this kicking around in my head for quite awhile, and the author did a wonderful job of writing it. Kudos to him!
Powell writes about a man who was pushed to his limit by conniving businessmen and indifferent politicians. Several life-altering setbacks in his personal life tipped the balance of his sanity, and led him on to a crusade. I don't want to divulge the plot, suffice it to say that it could be very plausible. In fact, I am really surprised, with the state of our country today, that this has not happened.
I could not put the book down! It moves along very fast. The split timeline in the beginning perplexed me, but made sense midway through the book.
My only suggestion for improvement would be to expand the plot, to include the targets themselves and how they actually reacted to the threat facing them and their families.
A very good book!
